February 27, 2025 Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Hugo 14669 Fitzgerald Avenue North Hugo, MN 55038 Re: Authorization to Prepare a Feasibility Study for the 2026 Bald Eagle Industrial Park Area Street Improvement Project Dear Mayor and Council, Each year the city reviews and determines priorities for upcoming capital improvement projects throughout the city. At the August 29, 2024 City Council work session, staff presented pavement and trail ratings, a draft 5-year CIP, and corresponding funding analysis. City Council approved the 5-year CIP at the September 16, 2024 City Council meeting.

Roadways included in the project are identified below: • 140th Street N (From TH 61 to Fenway Boulevard N) • Fenway Boulevard N (From 130th Street N to 140th Street N) • Fenway Boulevard Ct N (From Fenway Boulevard N to its eastern termini) • 130th Street N (from TH 61 to Europa Trail N) • Farnham Avenue N (from 130th Street N to its southern termini) Trails to be reconstructed include the following and will be part of the future Hardwood Creek Regional Trail: • 140th Street N (From TH 61 to Fenway Boulevard N) • Fenway Boulevard N (From 130th Street N to 140th Street N) A new trail is proposed to be constructed in the following location: • 130th Street N (from TH 61 to Fenway Boulevard N) The figure below is a portion of the CIP with roadways in blue shown identified as the 2026 Bald Eagle Industrial Park Area Street Improvement Project.
